Description

About the Book

A novel of a very different 20th Century

Book Synopsis

In 1912, history was changed by the Miracle, when the old world of Europe was replaced by Darwinia, a strange land of nightmarish jungle and antediluvian monsters. To some, the Miracle was an act of divine retribution; to others, it is an opportunity to carve out a new empire.

Leaving an America now ruled by religious fundamentalists, young Guilford Law travels to Darwinia on a mission of discovery that will take him further than he can possibly imagine...to a shattering revelation about mankind's destiny in the universe.

Robert Charles Wilson has crafted a brilliant science fiction novel--a view of an utterly different 20th century.

Darwinia is a 1999 Hugo Award Nominee for Best Novel.

"Rich, lucid, and literate...Comparable to Philip D. Dick or A. E. Van Vogt. Remarkable indeed." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Darwinia

"Robert Charles Wilson is a hell of a storyteller." --Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly, on Spin
